The manga based on the [[starfywiki:The Legendary Starfy (series)|''The Legendary Starfy'' series]] (specifically, it is loosely based on ''[[starfywiki:Densetsu no Starfy 4|Densetsu no Starfy 4]]'') features a possible reference to Captain Olimar in chapter seven, [[starfywiki:DSR07|Tenkai-koku, Game-Ou Ketteisen]]. At the end of the chapter, [[starfywiki:Starfy|Starfy]]'s best friend [[starfywiki:Moe|Moe]] is playing a game for the [[nwiki:Nintendo Entertainment System|Famicom]]. According to the cartridge it is known as "''Orima Brothers''" ({{j|オリマブラザーズ|Orimaburazāzu}}), based on the game ''[[mariowiki:Mario Bros.|Mario Bros.]]''. However, this may have only been a play on "Mario" in reverse, rather than Captain Olimar. Additionally, Captain Olimar's Japanese name ({{j|オリマー|Orimā}}) is spelled differently, in that it has a long vowel mark elongating the "ma".

The survival-game franchise ''Don't Starve'' features a character named Wormwood, a humanoid plant brought to life from magic. While boasting the appearance of a leaf Pikmin, he also has a blooming mechanic similar to Pikmin, growing a bulb and eventually a flower, which increases his running speed.
